Legal Calendaring and Deadlines
Dedicated virtual assistants who manage your court deadlines, hearing dates, and statute of limitations tracking with precision.
Missing a filing deadline or court appearance can result in sanctions, malpractice claims, and irreparable damage to your firm's reputation. Yet as caseloads grow, keeping track of every deadline across multiple matters becomes increasingly difficult. DocketHire provides trained legal calendar specialists who manage your docket, calculate deadlines based on applicable rules, and ensure every date is entered accurately into your calendar and case management system.
Our calendaring assistants are familiar with federal and state court rules, including local rules that affect deadline calculations. They monitor new filings, court orders, and scheduling notices to keep your calendar current. When dates change or continuances are granted, your assistant updates all systems immediately and notifies affected team members. This proactive approach eliminates the risk of overlooked deadlines and gives attorneys confidence that their schedules are always accurate.
Whether your firm handles a handful of cases or manages a high volume docket, DocketHire scales to meet your needs. Our assistants integrate with tools like Clio, PracticePanther, and dedicated docketing software to provide a single source of truth for all your deadlines. You get daily and weekly deadline reports, advance reminders, and the peace of mind that comes from knowing every date is accounted for.
